Matic moved Chelsea in 2009 for a fee of around �1.5 million however, during his first spell at Chelsea, he was used sparingly and was loaned to Dutch club Vitesse for the 2010/11 season. In January 2011, as part of a deal that saw David Luiz move to Chelsea, Matic left for Benfica.
In Portugal, Matic transformed into a formidable no.6. Under the guidance of manager Jorge Jesus, he was converted from a playmaker, and he was awarded the Primeira Liga Player of the Year for his performances during the 2012/13 season, also winning the Taca da Liga and the Primeira Liga with the Eagles.
After his impressive spell in Portugal, Matic returned to Chelsea in January 2014 for a fee of �21m.
He became a key player for the Blues, forming a strong midfield partnership with Cesc Fabregas, and during his second stint at the club, he won two Premier League titles and one League Cup. His standout performances led to him being named in the PFA Team of the Year for the 2014/15 season.
In July 2017, Matic was reunited with his former Chelsea manager, Jose Mourinho, when he signed for Manchester United. He played for the club until 2022, and during his time there, he scored a goal against Crystal Palace that was voted as the Manchester United Goal of the Season.
Following a stint at Roma again, under Mourinho he joined Rennes in 2023 and then moved to Lyon in 2024. In August 2025, he signed with the Serie A club Sassuolo, where he currently plays.
On the international stage, Matic made his senior debut for Serbia in 2008 and earned 48 caps, including being a part of the squad at the 2018 World Cup, before retiring from international football in 2020.
